On Cali's insistence

Cali insisted that this was Tenzing's baby. I think he agrees.

Just a few more months...

Tenzing is getting excited and can hardly wait to watch BYU football with Daddy!

Summer Lovin'

Last Monday it was 80 degrees and felt wonderfully like summer. Cali insisted on getting on her swimsuit and playing in the water. The girls had a blast and we will definitely be doing this a lot more this summer.






Our sweet setup- These are the best umbrellas and are only $40 at Costco.

Thanks Mom and Dad


Katya loved her birthday present.

3 Months

Can you believe it? I can't. He is growing up so fast!




Notes:
  • You are turning into a great sleeper. You are now in your crib in your room with the girls. You not only sleep about 12 hours each night, but you don't wake up when your sisters cry and yell or make noise.
  • You love being called "My main man Mr. T" and Handsome and respond with huge smiles.
  • You love getting your diaper changing and being naked. How do we know? The huge smiles on your face and the laughing.
  • You love chewing on your fingers and take those over a pacifier.
  • You are a good eater and eat between 6-8 ounces every 3-4 hours.
  • You are starting to strengthen your legs and stand. In the next couple of months we'll get out the jumperoo.
  • You are such a smiley kid.
  • You handle being bothered by your sisters pretty well.

Katya's 4th Birthday

Jethro took Katya on a date the night before her birthday and they had Panda Express for dinner and then made a trip to the Nicklecade.


In case Katya didn't know that it was a ball, Cali made sure to tell her.


Lots of outside toys for the summer.


Ice Cream cake!

Riding with Dad


We borrowed a bike trailer from Rebekah and the girls love it. They also love their bike helmets that they have to wear in the trailer. I love that it makes them tired enough that they fall asleep. It mutually benefits everyone.


Tenzing loves the ipod

Why am I so excited for this week?

  1. Preschool
  2. Fitness Olympics for scouts.
  3. Cake decorating class
  4. Girl's Night Out
  5. Fun projects to work on.

Happy Mother's Day, Staci!

I think that Mother's Day teaches me one thing: Staci is amazing. I don't know how she does it all. In our family, Mother's Day, Father's Day, and birthdays are pretty much days off. We don't have to worry about changing diapers, making meals, etc. So, today, I had to do Staci's job. Let me tell you, I am frustrated, tired, and worn out!

I don't know how Staci chases these kids around all day, keeps a clean house, sews, makes cards, makes meals, changes diapers, keeps up on current events, and makes me feel like I am the center of her universe! She is really inspiring.

Staci really is wonderful, more wonderful that I deserve, that is for sure.

Here are some pictures of my smokin' hot wife with our adorable kids.
